"Master, that prostitute is not looking for the fourth brother."

Everyone looked sideways, watching the third young master walk up to the master calmly, and hand the peach red letterhead to the master.

"She was looking for me."

Mrs. Ning gave a wink, the boy in charge stopped moving, and Aunt Zhou rushed to Zheng Chi's side, and took off Zheng Chi's belt. There was a bruise from the buttocks to the thighs, without any good flesh.

"My son who cried for his life!" Aunt Zhou cried unceasingly.

Zheng Zhao didn't say a word, just looked around.Knowing this, Zheng Zhen glanced at Ning's.Ning shi bowed slightly, leading a group of masters and servants to retreat outside from both sides.

Zheng Zhao said: "The prostitute who delivered the letter is called Chun Niang, and she is my cousin."

"Nonsense!" Zheng Zhen pointed at him and said angrily, "Your cousin's surname is Ning, she was raised in her boudoir innocently!"

Why do you always lie to yourself?

Zheng Zhao took a step back, avoided the finger, and said, "The letter is right there."

"She begged me to redeem her body, and she was so anxious that she happened to meet the second brother going to Gaoyang Tower."

It was not he who went to Gaoyang Tower, but Zheng Yu.Getting involved with Gao Yanglou, to the point of being ridiculed by Princess Chaoyang, is not him, but yourself.

Zheng Zhen's complexion changed again and again, and he sat on the chair panting, neither looking at him nor reading the letter, just said: "A while ago, Zhao Hanlin praised you for being smart, and I even told my friends that you are a study material, so you work hard. After a few days, I abandoned my studies and wandered around brothels. The last time I disciplined you, you said that you would wait for the rural exam next spring. What have you been doing these past few days? Every day with the girl’s family, you paint your eyebrows and eyes with makeup, wait for the rural exam next year? It’s shameful to wait for the rural exam next year Do you see it?"

Zheng Zhao stood still with his sleeves down, his heart like still water.He knew that he should admit his mistake first and retreat in order to advance, but he didn't want to do it.

Don't want to just don't want to.

"The middle of Beijing is prosperous, and you are young, so you should go to a clean place to study." Master Zheng Zhen said, "Well, my family has a few businesses in Linqing, and Brother Lian bought a house there. You should go there to study. , prepare for the provincial examination next year, don't come to Beijing if you have nothing to do."

Zheng Zhao asked, "Will Fu Niang go with me?"

Zheng Zhen looked at him when he heard the words, and said, "Let's go together, tomorrow."

Zheng Zhao smiled, bowed his head and stepped back.

Even if he was still studying with Zhao Hanlin, if something like this happened, in order not to hinder the eyes of the princess, and to prevent the master from remembering that he had hindered the eyes of the princess by using prostitutes for the concubine, he would be driven away.

As for retreating to advance, to gain a chance to stay...

Those who abandon me, why stay?

It was only noon when the night came and the moon was shining. Zheng Heng watched Zheng Zhao leave under the heavy curtain.He came and left in a hurry, as if he should not leave any traces, but he left a thrush in the capital.

"The third sister is satisfied?" Zheng Yu asked.

Zheng Heng smiled and said, "What are you satisfied with? What is the second brother talking about?"

Zheng Yu said: "Is it a coincidence that my father was at the door as soon as I entered the door? Is it a coincidence that my father confirmed the fourth brother without opening the letter? Is it a coincidence that my mother brought Aunt Zhou and a group of people to persuade him?"

Zheng Heng frowned and said: "Second brother, if you want to persuade father to change his mind, go into the room and talk to father, why are you wronging me? How can I know in advance what happened to you today?"

The more she spoke, the angrier she became, she turned around and walked over to Mrs. Ning, without looking at Zheng Yu.Zheng Yu ran over to apologize, but she ignored it, as if there was a rift between the siblings.

Zheng Qiang followed Aunt Sun, looked at the two of them with interest, and said in a low voice, "Auntie, did you find out what the happy event that the third sister mentioned last time was from Madam?"

Early the next morning, Zheng Zhao asked Pinghu to go to Gaoyang Tower to redeem a young prostitute who played the pipa, worth only 30 taels.

"Master, everything is packed, Danghu said that the carriage is ready at the door, you can leave anytime." Mi Xia came in and said.

Zheng Zhao said: "Then let's go."

As soon as he left the door of Gushan Pavilion, he saw Banlian running over covered in sweat.Panting, she grabbed the skirt of Zheng Zhao's robe, knelt down on her knees, wiped her tears and cried, "Young master, my father was ill last night, and I asked the doctor to say it was a stroke, and I need someone to take care of me, I..."

"Okay." Zheng Zhao interrupted her before she finished speaking, "You stay."

"Young master, this servant must remember your great kindness and virtue, and I will repay you by forming a straw ring in the next life." Banlian wiped away her tears, kowtowed her head and left.

"Hmph, she just wanted to find an excuse to stay because she saw that the young master was easy to talk to. Her father was still tough yesterday." Erya muttered.

"Don't make a mess." Cui'an pushed Erya and said, "Boys are careless, go and look at the carriages prepared at the door, don't let those dogs look down on people and use junk to make up for it."

Er Ya reluctantly left, Cui'an walked back to Zheng Zhao with a smile and said, "The girl Banlian is not sure, so it's better if the young master doesn't take her away."

Zheng Zhao said: "It's okay." If he was her, he would also hope that there was someone who would let him go when he wanted to leave.

The carriage came all the way to Ping'an Lane, and the yellow-haired girl supported Fu Niang to talk at the gate of Ping Hu, while Chun Niang bowed her head and hugged her bundle.Seeing the carriage stop, the four of them walked over together

"Zhao'er!" Fu Niang couldn't believe it, "He really wants to drive our mother away."

Zheng Zhao looked at Pinghu, and Pinghu nodded, telling Fu Niang what happened last night. "My elder brother also often lives in Linqing, and the place is clean and suitable for studying."

When Fu Niang heard the reading, she stopped pestering her and started packing her luggage, sedan chair and horse.Seeing that everyone was busy with their own work, Chun Niang stepped forward, bowed her knees and said: "Thank you, young master."

Zheng Zhao corrected, "Cousin."

Chun Niang smiled and said, "Yes, thank you cousin."

Zheng Zhaodao: "We are leaving for Linqing, does my cousin have any old friends in Beijing?"

Chun Niang shook her head and said: "No." She hesitated and said: "Cousin, can I go to Linqing with you?"

Zheng Zhao nodded. He didn't intend to let her go, but he just didn't want to embarrass her if she wanted to stay in the capital or go to other places.

The country is boundless, and the capital is a corner.

After getting off the carriage and changing boats, the canopy on the canal was almost connected together, covering the entire ferry.

Sitting on the bow of the boat, Zheng Zhao suddenly asked, "Is the system in?"

System: in.

Zheng Zhaodao: "Have you been keeping a log?"

System: Yes.

Zheng Zhaodao: "In the original world, I was driven from the palace to the imperial mausoleum. In this world, I was driven from the Duke's Mansion to Linqing. I start my life again. I haven't changed at all. How do I record this?"

The system was silent for a while before asking: Does the host want to stay?

Zheng Zhao smiled and said, "Think about it."

If you don't use morning and night to make peace, if you don't use intrigues, if you don't have to be wary of open swords and hidden arrows, wasting time socializing...

Who doesn't want to live a life of luxury?

The system said: "The log records the host's life, any decision is made by the host, and the host does not have to worry about whether making some decisions repeatedly will hinder the log recording."

Zheng Zhao smiled and said, "I push the door with my right hand every time, will you record it?"

System: The log is a holographic video.

All... information... video... video... I understand every word, but I don't understand it together.Zheng Zhao asked: "If I commit suicide now, can the next world go to a world with holographic videos?"

System: The order of the world belongs to the experimental process, and the host cannot interfere.

Chatting with the system to pass the time, I arrived at Linqing Mansion at noon the next day. Some family members received the news and were waiting at the pier.

The few shops of the Qingguo Mansion in Linqing are managed by the young master Zheng Lian, and his wife is also from Linqing. Obviously, he intends to settle in Linqing after Zheng Yu Xijue separates his family.

Master Zheng Zhen wanted Zheng Zhao to follow Zheng Lian, but Zheng Zhao thought that his elder brother Zheng Lian would not want to live with him.

Don't know how much it costs to rent a house?

No matter how much it was, Zheng Lian paid for it at his wife's command.Since they came to Linqing, they wanted to live by themselves.He even found a house farther away before coming.

"Third Brother, I've been exhausted for two days. I'll go back with my aunt first to have a good rest. Tonight, my eldest brother will pick you up and cleanse the dust. There is nothing else in Linqing. The food in the south and north is comparable to that in the capital!" Zheng Lian spoke with a lively tone Means, compared to the young master of the Duke's Mansion, he is more like a businessman.

Zheng Zhao and Fu Niang went back to rest, Cui An led the maids to put things away, and Chun Niang also came to help clean the room when she saw her.

Linqing is located on the edge of the canal. Literati and students, dignitaries, traffickers, and exam candidates, as long as they enter Beijing from the south, almost all of them pass through Linqing.No matter where you come from, you can find a cook from your hometown here.

"Hui Chun Ji is famous for collecting delicacies from all over the world. This table is called the flavor of the world, but the most worth trying is this pickle." Zheng Lian took a bite of the pickle with chopsticks, "This pickle is your sister-in-law's unique secret recipe. Fangzi, in just five years, has become a wealthy gentry in Linqing."

Zheng Zhao picked up a pickle, which was crystal clear and tasted crisp and delicious, with a hint of sweetness.As a pickle, it is indeed a delicious pickle, but there are too many foods that are better than pickles in the world.

He put down his chopsticks and took another sip of the sour bamboo shoot and chicken skin soup.

"Third brother, this means that the boat travels fast. If you come back at night, you may not be able to eat the entire banquet of Huichunji." Zheng Lian untied his belt, loosened his stomach, and continued to brag about eating, "I don't know which bastard is getting married. , the pomp is quite grand, I have invited Huichunji, Sihailou, and Laotiefang, the three best restaurants in Linqing, to open a three-day banquet, I want to eat after hearing this."

Zheng Zhao was half full and asked, "Brother, is there a good gold and stone shop in Linqing, I want to ask someone to engrave a seal?"

Zheng Lian said: "Jinshi Lane, the whole alley is full of gold and stone shops. As for the engraving, the craftsmen in the shop can't do it well. Please invite everyone!"

"Just engrave a seal casually, and don't need to spend a lot of time." Zheng Zhao said with a smile, "Besides, I can't invite those gentlemen."

He probably already has a printed draft in his mind, so he will go back tonight and draw it out to have a look, make some slight changes, and find someone to engrave it tomorrow.As for the stone knife technique and the like, it is almost fine, anyway, the orchids he is painting now are not very good.

"Well, I'll send a buddy to accompany you tomorrow." Zheng Lian said, "These merchants are very treacherous. When they meet newcomers from other places, they all sell second-rate goods and ask for sky-high prices. The young master is a big fat sheep."

Zheng Zhao said: "Brother, please."
